There's a couple of giant games coming to the various eShops this week for North America. On the 3DS side, New 3DSXL owners will get the first New 3DS-only game, Xenoblade Chronicles 3D - and given the delay North Americans had to endure for Xenoblade on Wii, eight days seems almost instantaneous. Just have that extra-capacity memory card handy, because 3.7GB/28,000+ blocks won't fit on the default memory card.

Wii U owners will get to take off on Affordable Space Adventure, a tight little game that does things with the GamePad you wouldn't believe. Daan really liked it, and we're pretty sure it's not related to trauma from Suspension Railroad Simulator.

But let's see what else awaits us in the week's eShop update.
